Hi, I'm Kate
Your sport's massage therapist
I was always interested in anatomy, biology and how the human body works, but to be honest becoming a massage therapist was never on my career list.
I signed up for a course on sports massage while I was studying to become a teacher at the University of South Bohemia in Czech. Shortly after receiving my sports massage certification in 2005, I moved to Canada and started my first position as a sports massage therapist.
​
Since then I have upgraded my skills by taking many other courses and workshops like hot stones massage, Hawaiian lomi lomi massage, cupping, gua sha, Indian head massage, reflexology, diagnosis and stretching, Dorn method adjustments, Breuss massage, and manual lymphatic drainage.
​
I truly believe that massage is a very powerful tool to improve our health and well-being, both physically and mentally.
The quote from doctor Lendon Smith is one of my favourites: “If you don’t take care of your body where are you going to live."
​
When I’m not working, I enjoy spending time with my family, in the mountains, hiking and skiing, and on the water kayaking.
SPORTS MASSAGE
Sports massage is a game-changer for climbers and athletes, offering a host of benefits to keep you at the top of your game. It's not just about relaxation—sports massage helps you recover faster, prevent injuries, and perform better. By targeting tight muscles and improving flexibility, it enhances your range of motion and overall performance. Regular sessions can also reduce stress levels, promote mental well-being, improve sleep and develop a stronger mind-body connection. All of which helps you tune into your body's needs and perform at your peak. Book a session today and experience the difference it can make in your training and recovery.
All treatments are provided by our certified sport massage therapist with 15+ years of experience. While every massage session is modified based on your need, in general, the treatments are centred around sport massage techniques combined with the following additional techniques:
Both relaxing and invigorating. I really appreciated her approach to begin with an overall welcoming technique of the hands to body, warming up the body and creating relaxation, and thereafter transitioning to the deeper tissue work.
